Are MO F15s due w/c 12th April?

[johnwickenden]

Apologies if this has been discussed elsewhere or if I am jumping the gun but does anyone have any information on the above?

On the basis that the Panthers went out to the Mjddle East on 30thMarch and would have needed to Covid Quarentine for 2 weeks, would the SJs they are replacing be due back through LN this week?

If so, does anyone have information on what do they might arrive / depart? Might quite like a trip up to see them.

Many thanks for any info

Thought it was MOs out east at the moment?

[TB1]

It is.

Apologies...title amended, but the question still remains.......

it was a fair question one I would like to know the answer to.But it would appear nobody knows.

It may be that with the current ongoing discussions about viewing at Lakenheath, this info may not be posted to try to avoid the usual invasion that occurs.

There are/were SJ's as well as MO's out East. 18 MO's in October and 12 SJ's in mid-January. I assume both deployments are still out there.

Just been back through the chatter on our Whatsapp group - These 12 SJ's went East around 17-19 Jan 2021, we thought for 4 months or so;

99% (probably) of "the usual invasion" being people that saw them back in October.

They returned down the Med and crossed the pond on 24th and 27th February - much to my disgust (I needed 3 of them).

OK, totally missed that! So just a 4-week deployment!

But some of them still need to see them again, and again, and again

The "man on the ground" will need to be there with his coat .lol

I don't really care about numbers or what letters are written on tails, I just like the change overs because they often happen outside working hours!

Even if they do come through LN, with easterly winds and sunshine forecast for the foreseeable, unless they arrive very early morning or early evening the heat haze will rule out decent shots of nose art etc. This only matters of course if getting pics of the artwork and mission symbols is your aim!

[Sentinal]

Have heard that 12 are due tomorrow afternoon, and 6 on Saturday.
